I was in a hit and run accident and I was recommended to Tom and his team. They were able to take on my case and work with me through the entire process. They answered any questions I had and it really helped me feel taken care of. I would recommend them to anyone in need of legal guidance.

I was the victim of a hit and run while jogging near my home in Blaine WA. After being left in the roadway with a bad limp and in a lot of pain, I called the police. I was lucky that the CBSA caught the driver returning to Canada (always get a plate!) and gave me their contact and insurance informati...
"Tom is an intelligent, dedicated and passionate advocate for his clients. I had the privilege of witnessing these traits firsthand while working with him on a complex case where Tom was instrumental in achieving an excellent result for our client. It is my privilege to provide Tom with my endorsement."
"I have known and seen Tom Mumford practice law for seven years. I am a fellow lawyer in the community. In my opinion, Tom is a wonderful attorney with great insight into the practice of Tort law. Tom has empathy and understanding for his client's suffering and plight. If I had a Tort law issue, I would not hesitate a moment to hire Tom to advocate for me. Tom is a true gentleman and yet a fierce and zealous advocate in the courtroom. I would endorse Tom Mumford to handle any Tort or Contract law issue anywhere in the State of Washington."
"I have known and respected Tom's work for many years. I frequently refer clients and cases to Tom with confidence the client will be well cared for and receive great lawyering."
"Tom and I have worked on a few cases together as opposing counsel and I respect him. Tom vigorously represents his clients' interests, and presents them succinctly in court when needed."
"Tom Mumford is an excellent attorney. I have worked with him on a number of matters over the years, and refer clients to him with complete confidence. Clients will appreciate his candor, competence, and high standard of ethics."
"I am happy to endorse Tom Mumford (Michael T. Mumford.) I am his business partner and so I see his work on a regular basis. He is hard-working and enthusiastic and has real concern for his clients. When members of my own family have had problems and required assistance, I recommended Tom to them. We have been very happy with his service and with the outcomes he worked out. In every case, he has obtained more in damages than we thought would be available and served my family member well. Tom's skill and persistence make him the idea advocate."
"Tom Mumford and I were on opposite sides of an employment-related dispute a while back. I was very impressed by his knowledge of the law, and his analytical skills. Even though we were adversaries, Tom was a real gentleman, and a pleasure to work with. Tom is an outstanding lawyer, and I strongly endorse him."
